Oh no! Costco is usually a good bet for prepared foods. Their regular pizza is good, $10 for a fresh, hot one at the food court...can't beat it!

If I was going to make a splurge buy I should have at least gotten something involving a vegetable. I couldn't even eat it and the rest is going in the trash. I hate wasting food. I've had their regular pizza before and it's just fine, but Papa Murphy's is still our favorite.

We're having sloppy joes. I fed Mr B some fish last night, and you'd have thought I was trying to kill him, so he's quite pleased that we're having one of his favorites tonight.

AND Mr K loves sloppy joes. Yuk, not my thing, but do I eat them when he makes them, yes, I do.

Pizza.
There is a now place opened between Mr K's work and home that claims to have true NY pizza. We're trying it tonight. Isn't that romantic? Eh, who cares! I won't have to cook it, hopefully it will be tasty, and we'll use paper plates, so no washing dishes (or harassing the teens to wash them)

KK, that's so funny! What is it with these guys and fish? God forbid they should eat something that's actually good for them. It's probably been at least a year since I made sloppy joes. My family never ate them when I was growing up, and I've never been particularly impressed with any of the recipes I've tried before. Today I looked up a bunch of different recipes online and tried one by Rachel Ray - it was really good! Nice balance of sweet and tangy and spicy. Mr B & I don't do Valentine's stuff, so he was really happy with this. Hope your pizza is good!

I'm going to look for the RR sloppy joe recipe, and tell him that's the only one I'm willing to eat next time. We'll see how that goes over. He likes that horrid 'manwich' crap.

The only thing I did differently to RR's recipe was that I only had one 8 oz can of tomato sauce (the recipe calls for 2 cups) and no tomato paste, so I used the tomato sauce I had and added some ketchup but not a whole cup. It was probably between a quarter and a half cup. Then I added just a bit more red wine vinegar and worcestershire to make up for the additional sweetness of the ketchup. I think I'd make them the same way next time. Two whole cups of tomato sauce seems like it would make them way too runny.

And of course, it will definitely be accompanied by a glass of red wine.
